Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.
Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.
No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.
Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.
Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.
One switch stops every agent. Instantly.
One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.
Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.
Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.
Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.
Curated set · 4 capabilities
We ship only the actions that matter.
01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Pipeline Hydraulic Design.
- 01
Analyze pressure profile
This capability calculates pressure at specific points along a pipeline by factoring in fluid properties and terrain elevations.
- 02
Calculate batch impact
Use this to predict how the hydraulic profile shifts when you pump different products through the same line.
- 03
Find optimal diameter
This capability identifies the most cost-effective pipe diameter for your specific flow requirements.
- 04
Optimize pump placement
This capability determines the necessary locations for pump stations to keep system pressure within safe operating limits.
Real work
What teams actually run
New Pipeline Design
Determine the best pipe diameter and pump locations for a brand new liquid transport route.
Batch Product Switching
Analyze how moving from one fluid to another affects the pressure gradient in a shared line.
Safety Limit Verification
Check if current pump placements are sufficient to keep pressure within safe bounds for a given terrain.
Cost Optimization
Find the most economical pipe diameter that still satisfies required flow rates and pressure drops.
One connector, every AI
Pipeline Hydraulic Design works with the most popular AI clients.
These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Pipeline Hydraulic Design to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication
The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Pipeline Hydraulic Design, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Pipeline Hydraulic Design. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ
Questions Pipeline Hydraulic Design owners ask.
- 01
What kind of hydraulic modeling does this MCP perform?
It performs professional steady-state hydraulic modeling for liquid pipelines, including pressure profiling and pump optimization.
- 02
Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
- 03
How does the MCP handle terrain data?
